Scientists usually study the molecular machinery that controls gene expression from the perspective of a linear, two-dimensional genome—even though DNA and its bound proteins function in three ...

Researchers found three master genes that alter brain development in Down syndrome, offering new clues about learning and memory differences.

Herring from different parts of the Baltic Sea belong to distinct populations genetically adapted to local differences in salinity and temperature. However, these populations can also mix with each ...

An incredible evolution of an already great spin-off series.

The origin of many diseases begins at the cellular level and involves multiple molecular interactions. However, previous methods have struggled to accurately observe changes in individual cells.

The faba bean is an ancient crop. It is particularly valuable because it is high in protein, and can convert nitrogen from the air into a form that can be used by plants in the soil. This makes it a ...

The origin of many diseases begins at the cellular level and involves multiple molecular interactions. However, previous methods have struggled to accurately observe changes in individual cells.

Although mental disorders have multifactorial causes, genetics can explain some of them, yet this field remains largely unexplored in terms of guiding diagnoses and treatments. In the largest study of ...

Magnetoelectric nanoparticles embedded in a hydrogel and delivered by a threaded acupuncture needle activate mast cells under ...

Pre-eclampsia is a life-threatening pregnancy complication that can strike suddenly, endangering both mother and child.

Driving past Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle, I noticed a billboard that reads something like, “We treat your cancer like it’s YOUR cancer.” The message is more than a slogan. It ...

Researchers profiled nearly 7 million individual cells from mice, identifying which cells are most vulnerable to aging and what drives their decline. The resulting atlas could guide efforts to develop ...
